Sorry for the lack of details in the last few weeks.
Our ministry for our first Delhi week was working with street kids. They are to most amazing kids ever. I love them. Half the team worked with older kids and my half worked with younger ones. The place we worked was called Treasure House and it's run by an Indian YWAMer. Some of the kids are forced into begging by their parents. At night, if they don't have any money with them, they aren't allowed to go home. If they have any money, or anything that was given to them, their parents take it from them, sell it and spend the money on alcohol. But most are just there, because they don't have anyone.
The second week we went to the houses of Afgani refugees. They are all Christians, who cannot go back to Afghanistan because they are Christian. We get fed like we were never fed before and they want to learn more and more about God. We also went to a university, where all the students, but one are Muslim. We were just building relationships for this on YWAMer, who has been covertly evangelizing there. We had the most fun there, I think. The students would ask us questions, we would answer, then ask a question. They would answer, then we'd have a whole convo about their answer. It was fun.
This week, I'm not sure what we are doing, but I think we are working with Burmese refugees later this week.
I can't believe that in 8 days, I'll be back in LA. It's crazy. I know this sounds cliche, but it seems like yesterday we landed in Kathmandu.
